Getting some fresh air

The Pug on a dune, south of Scheveningen.



The skyline of The Hague.



In the south, the new sandmotor is started to getting shape.



The Sand Motor is a huge volume of sand which will be applied this year at Ter Heijde. Big suction hopper dredgers will deposit the dredged sand from the sea on land via rainbowing or through a pipeline.

Influenced by wind and water the sand gradually spreads along the coast.
The Sand Motor will gradually change in shape and will eventually
be fully incorporated in the dunes and the beach.

Rainbowing



So in the end of the year I have much more beach to explore!!

The Hague by snow..!

The grounds on which the Binnenhof now stands were purchased by Count Floris IV of Holland in 1229, where he built his mansion, next to the little lake that has been called Hofvijver or 'Court Pond' since the 13th century.



The Binnenhof (Dutch, literally "inner court"), is a complex of buildings in The Hague. It has been the location of meetings of the Staten-Generaal, the Dutch parliament, since 1446, and has been the centre of Dutch politics for many centuries.



More buildings were constructed around the court, several of which are well known in their own right, such as the Ridderzaal (Great hall; literally Knight's Hall), where the queen holds her annual speech at Prinsjesdag.



My favorite place for eating fish.
For Herring ( yep, raw with unions ) and fried fish, this is the best place in Town
